Sensory Station for our Inclusion Classroom

Funded Aug 10, 2022

The implementation of the sensory station/calm down corner to my inclusion classroom has had a tremendous impact. This year I have an amazing group of students with diverse needs and having these additional resources has allowed me to meet those needs. My students loved seeing these amazing resources and every time a new student comes into our classroom it is the first thing they notice and it immediately puts a smile on their face.

Although I have many students with special needs we have one particular special needs student that was new to public schools and had never been in a setting with so many students that was so structured and it was not an easy transition. Utilizing the sensory station and calm down corner when he was struggling was an immediate intervention I used that had an immediate positive effect. The sensory station has created an inclusive classroom setting that has had an affect on every student in my classroom not just those with special needs. I look forward to continuing to see the effects of these wonderful resources on my students.

Thank you to all the donors. Our classroom is a welcoming inclusive environment that the students in my classroom and others in the school have benefited from. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
